 | "Such a disappointment after MYSTIC RIVER" | 2008-06-27 |
| I listened to this novel set in Massachusetts read by Tom Stechshulte and he was absolutely the wrong person to read this book. He turned every African-American character into some trash-talking ignoramus from the South. The novel itself has suspense and if I had read it instead of listening, might feel more positive toward it. The ending was so farfetched that I just had to laugh. I need another story like MYSTIC RIVER to make me believe in Dennis LeHane again. | ||

 | The Clearing | |
 | "A universe of the swamp" | 2007-10-09 |
| This is a novel that is just so big in so many ways. The characters are unforgettable, the hellhole they inhabit is unforgiving and the people they are in conflict with are ruthless. This is a novel with a real plot, but also with vividly drawn, totally believable characters.
Tim Gautreaux is a very talented writer and this is my first exposure to his writing. | ||
